Landstar and Schneider Choice

So you decide not to switch to flatbed at Mercer ?

 

I did step deck at landstar and found that agents did have their favorites. But isn't that the same every where you go?. Nice thing about LS , is the load alerts. I think its way better than having a coordinator. Maybe a little more honest. Jmo

 

What is "better" depends on what kind of operation you want to run.

Do you want to be dealing with brokers, negotiating rates and etc to get loads.
Or do you want more simplicity and with no brokers but lose your ability to negotiate (still pick your own loads though and no dispatch).

As far as the biggest difference I think that's it right there.
Lots of open window appointment drop and hook freight at Schneider, from what I've heard it's not as much at Landstar.

What option really depends on you and what lifestyle would make you happy.
BOTH I think are good choices overall.
